A question on the Protection Tree

Currently I am specced Retribution. However, I have been thinking of trying the Protection tree on my Paladin. I was looking at the talent tree today on thottbot and under the Protection tree, I found a skill that raises a question.

First, here is the link to the site I was looking at Paladin Tree ok, now way at the bottom under the Protection tree is the skilled called Weapon Expertise.

Ultimately, it adds 10 points to your weapon skill with all weapons by 2 points per talent point spent. For a max of 10.

So at 300 Polearms, being 60th level, would my then effective skill be 310? Or is the hard cap on the high end always going to be 300?
